One caveat with the ground rod installation through the basement slab . . . ensure you research your drainage tile location within the boundaries of the walls, otherwise you may wish you never began the ground rod installation. Most basement slabs not only have perimeter drainage tiles outside the perimeter, but also inside, and diagonally within the walls. These typically tie into the sump and sump pump system, so be careful.

A good RF ground is great, but not at the expense of a compromised tile system.
